There are generally 52 Fridays in a year. However, depending on how the calendar falls, in some years there can be 53 Fridays. This happens if the year starts on a Friday in a non-leap year, or if a Friday falls on either of the first two days of a leap year. Most years have 52 Fridays. For example, in 2025, there are 52 Fridays. In contrast, in 2021 there were 53 Fridays because the year started on a Friday.
